Book Blurb

Welcome to Perfection, California. The year is 1961. The picket fences are white, the lawns are green, and the sprinklers are shiny and new. But they’re not the only things spurting high into the summer air.

Because behind every closed door in Perfection, there’s a perfect ass, including that of Clark, Perfection’s 18-year-old paperboy, who on his last day in town before leaving on a Greyhound bus for Harvard, delivers more than just the news—

—thanks to the help of the town’s dashing, silver-haired dentist and his retractors—

—followed by the town’s handsome Chief of Police, his Deputy and a pair of handcuffs—

—followed by the burly, bear-hugging owner of the local hardware store who, with the help of Clark and a few other close buddies, gets to test out that new swinging contraption in his workshop.

Yes, this paperboy is destined to leave Perfection... with a smile on his perfect face.

 

Book Review

Perfection, California. In 1961 no less. Really? From the moment I realized that was the setting of this short story, or rather the whole series, I started to smile. Then I read the blurb, and began to grin. And as soon as I had made it to page seven and the, ahem, golf instructions, I laughed out loud, and didn’t really stop until the end. In a great piece of “pure p*rn” meets “hilarious entertainment", this is the tale of eighteen-year-old Clark and his series of good-byes before leaving Perfection for the rigors of college.    

Clark may take his job of delivering papers seriously, but it quickly became quite obvious to me that he takes “customer service” even more serious. He also seems to have some favorite customers, and those are the ones I got to see in more detail. First, the dentist (never mind that he’s married) and the dentist’s chair – and no, I will never look at another one of those in the same way. Then there is the chief of police, who insists he examine some minor scrapes (yeah, right) Clark got when the chief’s dog made him tumble off the delivery bike. Yep, handcuffs are used in an entirely non-lawful way and, oh, did I mention the deputy has a hand in all of it as well? *shakes head at those lusty Californians* And finally, after a refreshing glass of iced tea, there is the owner of the hardware store (also married but seemingly oblivious of that fact during this encounter) who tests his – you will never believe it – new Hawaiian sling on Clark. Yes, well, that is what he calls it… And he is assisted by a few others… By this point, I was wondering if anyone was not in on this good-bye ceremony of the sexy kind.

If you’re looking for something serious or even a plot, this is not the book for you. But if you want to be thoroughly entertained, or need a good laugh, and if you’re looking for a very hot and very funny fantasy of what it might be like to be the paperboy in Perfection, California, then you will probably enjoy this short story. Oh, and let me tell you, the ending shows even more perfection…
